Study on Random Initiation Phenomenon for Sympathetic Detonation of Explosive

Abstract It is important to understand the characteristics of explosive sympathetic detonation for explosive safety. Sympathetic reaction test of GHL (RDX/Al/Binder) explosive charges with shell are conducted. A model of the sympathetic reaction test is established. The elements-apart method and nodes random-failure method are used in the model to describe the expansion progress of shell expanding and the randomly forming process of fragments. Random detonation phenomena of acceptor charge are simulated.
